Regular users in Sweden are in danger because a corporation needs to fill their pockets. Studios are suing your ISPs to get to you.

Use I2P. It will hide your IP address (among the many things it can do), afford you more privacy and allow you to torrent freely, even without a VPN/seedbox. The catch? You'll have to add the I2P trackers to your torrent.

I believe I2P is the way forward for piracy and I look forward to it getting bigger than it already is.

https://geti2p.net/en/ looks like Tor. but it is not the same?

similar yes but not the same. tor held together by volunteer that run nodes, i2p everyone is a node. tor good for clearnet things, i2p good for in-network things. torrenting in i2p is good for i2p, not tor. torrenting in i2p stays in the i2p network, doesn't go through exit nodes. there's only about 3 of those. it's torrenting as a darknet hidden service.

Does being a node open one to liability?

No, since they don't act as exit nodes (they're called outproxies in I2P), unless you specifically configure that. It's like running a Tor middle/guard relay. I2P was specifically designed that way, so everyone can use I2P and be a node by default without causing any trouble.
